Author Panelist at FILSD 2026
Massiel Desireé has been invited by the Dominican Writers Association to participate as an author panelist at the XXVIII Feria Internacional del Libro Santo Domingo 2026.
Organized by the Dominican Republic’s Ministry of Culture, the fair brings together authors, readers, publishers, scholars, and cultural organizations for eleven days of literary conversations, book presentations, workshops, readings, and programming from across the Dominican Republic and the international literary community.
The 2026 edition will welcome Panama as its country of honor and pay tribute to distinguished Dominican poet and essayist José Mármol.
Massiel’s panel appearance will reflect the themes that shape her work as a Dominican-American writer and the author of Luna & Cielo: The Same Fire, Different Faces, a bilingual poetry collection exploring inheritance, desire, heartbreak, identity, grief, cultural memory, and becoming.
